The issue with subscriptions is that they get very expensive if you want to subscribe to all the blogs you're reading.
Maybe micropayments are a better alternative, but the current implementations all rise the barrier of entry in a way that makes them undesirable.
I have tried to think of a better system and I have written it down as a free "micropayment standard". You can find it here, I am looking forward to any comments.

I am also working on a reference implementation over here:

I'd be happy about some feedback.
